Example: This is Angie with Channel 4 news. What would you say was the biggest challenge you faced during the hurricane?
The biggest challenged I faced during the hurricane was keeping my six children safe. The wind was whipping at over 110 miles per hour and we had never heard it howl as loud as it was howling.
Have fun with this. Many states that experience hurricanes are in the south. You can use the southern dialect in your writing to illustrate voice. Again, have fun with it.
